Spear, Jr.
xx xx' PIVOTABLE FLUID DIVERTER FOR RECIRCULATION SYSTEM BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to improvements in sewage treatment systems, and, more particularly, to improvements in sewage treatment systems of the type in which a clear effluent is obtained by a finishing treatment of a sewage effluent stream which has previously been subjected to a primary and a secondary treatment.
In locations not served by municipal sewage systems, septic tanks, settling systems and other small scale sewage treatment systems are widely used. Separate sewage treatment systems for use, for example, for a house, small apartment complex, or the like, are becoming increasingly popular. Such systems commonly comprise a first settling tank for separating the solid matter from the sewage, a second tank where the sewage, both liquid and solid, is exposed to oxygen and decomposed by a aerobic action and a third tank for final separation by settling. The effluent from the third tank is not always as clear as it should be, and commonly has a minor proportion of solids and an objectionably high biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). It is desirable to treat such an effluent further, both to clarify it as well as to reduce its BOD.
Apparatus conventionally used for the finishing treatment of such an effluent commonly comprises a sprayrecirculation tank in which the effluent is recirculated through a spray header to aerate, usually intermittently, and a separate filtration unit through which the aerated effluent is pumped. Such a two-unit system usually requires two pumps.
Another presently used system utilizes a single sprayrecirculation tank containing the filtration unit. Incoming effluent is filtered through the filtration unit and a submersible pump spray-recirculates the filtered liquid, usually intermittently. An outlet for the effluent is located at a desired level usually about one foot from the bottom of the tank so as to maintain the liquid level at this height. The disadvantage of this system is that, except where the unit is located on an elevated embankment of the like, the outlet is several feet below the specified discharge level, and therefore, requires a second pump.
The apparatus of this invention combines the simplicity and economy of the single unit, and at the same time, obviates the cost and problems associated with a second pump. Moreover, the raised outlet of the tank permits an accumulation of a surge until such time as the pump should start up, thus permitting better aeration of the liquid in the tank. It will be recognized that where the outlet level, as in the prior art, is situated at the liquid level, any surging of liquid would immediately result in a flow of liquid from the tank.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is, therefore, a general object of this invention to provide a new and improved treatment system for finishing effluent sewage generated in private dwellings and small clusters or complexes of private dwellings which do not have the benefit of a full-scale municipal sewage treatment plant.
It is also a general object of the invention to provide a simple and rugged fluid diverter enclosed within an aeration tank and a float fixedly attached to the diverter in such a manner as to divert fluid out of the tank when there is an excessive accumulation of liquid in the tank, thus lowering the liquid level within the tank; when the liquid accumulation in the tank is insufficient, the diverter recirculates the liquid in the tank.
These and other objects, features and advantages of this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following description of a preferred form thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and appended claims.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. I is a front vertical sectional view of a treatment system for aeration and clarification of sewage, including a reservoir, a sand filter bed disposed within the reservoir and recirculation means for aerating liquid within the reservoir.
FIG. 2 is a side vertical sectional view of the apparatus of FIG. 1 along the line 2-2.
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary perspective view showing in enlarged detail a preferred manner of pivoting the diverter or trough.
FIG. 4 is a side vertical sectional view of a portion of a reservoir equipped with a chlorine contact chamber, where chlorination is desired.
In the figures of the drawing, like reference numerals are used to denote like parts. Some of the parts have been dimensionally exaggerated, for clarity of illustration and to facilitate the description of the operation of the apparatus.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Briefly the treatment system of the apparatus and embodying this invention includes a reservoir, holding tank, or accumulator in which a predetermined liquid level is to be maintained within narrow limits. A filter bed of sand and other particular solid material is disposed within the reservoir above the level of liquid to be maintained. Effluent from a prior sewage treatment system is discharged onto the filter bed and percolates through it to collect in the reservoir directly below. A submersible pump lifts the liquid to a perforated header near the top of the reservoir, from which the liquid is sprayed to aerate the liquid.
More particularly, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawing, the treatment system embodying this invention is indicated generally at 10, and includes a reservoir or tank 11 provided with an inlet pipe 12 in one wall of the tank, and an outlet pipe 13 in another wall of the tank. As will be apparent from the description hereinafter, as long as the outlet pipe is above the desired liquid level to be maintained in the reservoir, the disposition of the inlet and outlet pipes relative to each other is a matter of convenience rather than of critical importance. Where pressure considerations permit, it may be desirable to provide an inlet pipe 12, shown in phantom view in FIG. 1, which is provided with suitable holes through which the incoming effluent may be sprayed into the reservoir thus giving it an initial aeration. Whether introduced into the reservoir through inlet pipe 12 or 12', the incoming fluid is discharged upon a filter unit shown generally at 20 which includes a tray 21 containing successive layers of stone, coarse sand and fine sand to filter the incoming fluid, as is well known in the art. The tray 21 may be formed of any corrosion-resistant material, for example, concrete, glass-fiber-reinforced plastic, and the like. The tray is supported within the reservoir so the bottom of the tray is disposed above a desired predetermined liquid level L to be maintained during operation of the system. For economy, and ease of fabrication, particularly where the reservoir 11 is made of the same material as that chosen for the tray 21, for example, concrete, the tray may be formed as an integral part of the reservoir projecting inwardly from the sides thereof as shown in FIG. 1. The bottom of tray 21 is provided with holes 22 through which incoming fluid percolates into the reservoir 1 1. Where an inlet pipe 12 is used, a slab 23 is placed atop the filter bed so as to break the force of incoming fluid, and, at the same time, to distribute the fluid over the surface of the filter bed.
Filtered liquid collects in the reservoir and continues to accumulate. A submersible pump 30 rests on the bottom of the reservoir 1 1, and in normal operation, is immersed by the filtered liquid. The submersible pump serves to recirculate the liquid in the reservoir by pumping the liquid through a discharge line 31 which is in open fluid communication with a spraying means such as a spray header 32. In this embodiment the spray header may be a piece of pipe closed at one end and provided with perforations or holes 33, or slots of suitable diameter, through which the recirculated liquid is sprayed. The spraying means may be of any known type such as for example, a disc sprayer or multiple nozzles. For economy, however, an elongated foraminous conduit is preferred. The conduit may be of convenient shape having multiple orifices 33 disposed within the spraying means so as to enable a portion the sprayed fluid to be selectively collected as will be described hereinafter. The submersible pump 30 may be operated by a conventional timing mechanism which may be set to spray-recirculate liquid for a predetermined interval of time, say 30 minutes every hour on the hour during periods when the sewage system is subjected to heavy loads, and for shorter intervals of time, say minutes, during those periods as for example late at night, when the sewage system is infrequently used, or coasting. The particular intervals of spray-recirculation to oxygenate the liquid are chosen in proportion to the BOD of the liquid in the tank and the BOD desired in the effluent after it is treated.
An upper guide 34 and a lower guide 35 are fixedly disposed in vertically spaced apart relationship on the discharge line 31. A vertical rod 36 is slidably disposed within the upper and lower guides. The lower end of the rod is fixed to a float 37 which rests on the surface of the liquid in the reservoir. The other end of the rod is fixedly attached to a diverter or spray-collecting means, such as an elongated trough 38, open at both ends, preferably at a point intermediate the open ends. The length of the trough is so chosen as to place a portion of the trough under some of the holes 33 so as to receive liquid sprayed from those holes. The greater the number of holes from which liquid is sprayed into the trough, the more rapidly does the trough divert liquid out of the reservoir. To facilitate adjusting the rate at which the liquid level may be restored, the trough 38 may be extensible.
As shown in FIG. 3, the outlet pipe 13 is preferably provided with an upturned portion 14in which one end of the trough 38 is pivotally disposed. This may be effected by any pivot means such as pivot pins oppositely disposed in the upturned portion 14 of the outlet pipe 13. A preferred pivot means is a sleeve bearing 39 fixedly attached to one end of the trough and a rod 40 slidably disposed in the upturned portion 14 of the outlet pipe 13. The sleeve bearing 39 and the rod 40 are preferably made from corrosion resistant material which are also unaffected by bacterial growth. Aluminum and polyolefin synthetic resins are most preferred. The rod 36 is fixedly attached to the trough 38, at a point away from the pivot means, so as to selectively place at least a portion of the spray header 32 in open fluid communication with the outlet pipe. This occurs when the trough is inclined upwardly, about and from a horizontal plane through the rod 40, causing liquid in the trough to flow down into the outlet pipe. Alternately, the trough 38 is inclined downwardly from the horizontal plane causing liquid to flow down into the reservoir.
The purpose of recirculating the liquid retained in the tank 11 is to oxygenate the liquid thereby lowering its BOD. Oxygen is economically provided by air which enters the reservoir 11 through a grid 50 having multiple perforations 51. The perforations 51 are preferably large enough to permit easy access of air to and from the reservoir, and at the same time, small enough to prevent undesirable debris from drifting into the reservoir 11. The holes 51 are preferably in the range from about one-fourth inch to l inch in diameter. The grid 50 may be made from cast iron, cementitious material, or any corrosion-resistant material which has sufficient strength to function as a cover capable of withstanding the weight of a person, and at the same time, providing a screening function. The cover 50 may be recessed into the top of the reservoir 1 1 as shown, or be hingedly disposed thereupon for easy access to the interior of the reservoir.
In operation, it is desired to maintain the liquid within the reservoir 11 at a desired mean liquid level L. Incoming fluid from a prior sewage treatment system is introduced into the reservoir 11 through the inlet pipe 12 and is discharged upon the slab 23 and distributed over the surface of the filter bed 24. The fluid percolates through the filter bed and drains through holes 22 into the liquid below leaving the solids in the filter bed. The length of the vertical rod 36 is so chosen that when the liquid level is below the desired means liquid level L, the trough is inclined downwardly from the horizontal plan through the rod 40 so that the end of the trough opposite to the pivoted end is tilted so as to discharge liquid from the trough into the reservoir. If desired the slab 23 may be extended to a position below the downwardly inclined trough to break the force of the discharged liquid and to aid in the distribution of the liquid over the filter bed. But when the liquid level rises above the desired mean liquid level L, the trough is inclined upwardly from a horizontal plane through the rod 40 so the stream from the trough is discharged into the outlet pipe 13. Thus, incoming effluent continues to be filtered through the filter unit 20 and continues to collect in the reservoir 11 until the predetermined mean liquid level L is exceeded, whereupon the float responsive means displaces the trough upwardly with respect to the pivoted end of the trough and a portion of the sprayed fluid is diverted into the outlet pipe. The upwardly inclined attitude of the trough is maintained until enough fluid has been discharged from the reservoir to lower the liquid level L. The float 37 on the liquid surface is lowered a like amount, changing the attitude of the trough 38 to a downward inclination and causing the liquid sprayed from the spraying means to be diverted into the reservoir.
It will be apparent that the pump 30 may be located outside the tank and is not necessarily submerged within the liquid for the purposes of this invention. Similarly, it will be recognized that the trough 38 may be an extensible trough to accommodate units of different capacities and to permit varying the rate at which sprayed liquid may be collected and discharged from the tank.
It will also be recognized from the preferred embodiment described hereinabove that, solids contained in the incoming fluid stream to be treated might eventually plug the filter bed 24. Should this occur, unfiltered fluid would escape over the side of the tray 21 and be eventually discharged from the reservoir without adequate filtrationuThose skilled in the art will recognize that it is desirable to make periodic inspections of the quality of the effluent from the outlet pipe 13 to determine whether or not it has been satisfactorily treated. Alternatively, it is desirable to provide means to sense the quality of the fluid discharged from the outlet 13 and to indicate when this quality has regressed below an acceptable level.
In some instances, it may be desirable to chlorinate aerated, recirculated liquid, by contacting the liquid with chlorine pellets in a contact chamber. Such treatment is not expected, generally, to be necessary, but where it is desired, the reservoir 11 is provided with an internal contact chamber, shown generally at 40, in the upper portion of the reservoir 11. The contact chamber 40 has an opening 41 in which the trough 38 is pivotally disposed. Any suitable means of pivoting the trough may be used, such as oppositely disposed pivot pins engaged in slots in the end of the trough, or any other means, substantially as described hereinbefore. A tray 42 is fixedly disposed in the contact chamber 40 so as to receive liquid from the trough 38.
When the liquid level rises above the predetermined liquid level, the trough 38 discharges a preselected proportion of the liquid sprayed from the spraying means into a tray 42, preferably provided with plural drain holes. The tray 42 is stocked with chlorine pellets 43 which may be introduced into the tray in any suitable manner. The contact chamber 40 is provided with a partition or baffle 44 which serves to divide the chamber vertically into two compartments, in open communication with each other, through an opening 45 near the bottom. The partition 44 insures that aerated recirculated effluent is discharged from the trough 38 into contact with the chlorine pellets 43 and then held in the chamber 40 for sufficient time to provide an additional leveling effect with respect to surges to which the system is subjected.
Chlorinated liquid accumulates in the contact chamber and continues to accumulate until the level reaches the opening 46 through which the chlorinated liquid flows to outlet pipe 47 from which it is discharged from the system. It will be apparent that the opening 46 is lower than the opening 41, and preferably below the tray 42. it will also be apparent that it is desirable to dispose the contact chamber as high as possible within the reservoir 11 so as-not to sacrifice any more liquid head than is necessary.
Modifications, changes, and improvements to the preferred forms of the invention herein disclosed, described and illustrated may occur to those skilled in the art who come to understand the principals and precepts thereof. Accordingly, the scope of the patent to be issued herein should not be limited to the particular embodiments of the invention set forth herein, but rather should be limited by the advance by which theinvention has promoted the art.

Mission Statement
The Phi Delta Theta Mission Statement: Phi Delta Theta was organized with three principle objectives: The cultivation of friendship among its members; the acquirement individually of a degree of mental culture, and the attainment personally of a high standard of morality. The Three Cardinal Principles of Phi Delta Theta:
Friendship: When forming Phi Delta Theta, the founders saw inspiration in the friendship enjoyed by the ancient Greeks. They characterized friendship as a unity of skills, tastes and thoughts; not as a loss of personal identity, but rather a search for truth and a desire to be united with others who sought the same. To put it simply, friendship is being there for each other through life's trials and to offer sound advice.
Sound Learning: Sound learning means more than getting good grades; it's about having intellectual curiosity. The founders saw learning as a search for the truth; truth that is found through intellectual quests. A good student isn't necessarily the one who receives straight A's; a good student is one who is excited about learning and is driven by knowledge. His drive of continual learning continues after graduation and throughout life.
Rectitude: The six original founders were men of strong Christian faith. Several went on to pursue occupations as ordained ministers. It's unfortunate that the word 'rectitude' brings to mind simply going to church or abstaining from alcohol. The men of Phi Delta Theta know that rectitude has more to do with the way a man approaches living. It revolves around doing what should be done because it's the right thing to do. In these three ways, a man can live a life of integrity and the men of Phi Delta Theta have counted on the Cardinal Principles to see them through their lives during college and beyond.

Cool front could slow weekend fishing
Published: Thursday, November 15, 2007 at 8:33 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 15, 2007 at 11:42 a.m.
GRAND ISLE -- An approaching cool front has south Louisiana fishermen pondering a pair of questions.
Will the front push water out of the marsh resulting in muddy water conditions.
Or will the front leave things unchanged?
"There is a chance the cool front could change things," Buggie Vegas of Bridge Side Marina said. "If the front is strong enough, it could slow trout fishing because of the muddy water conditions."
Vegas said if that happens, it could result in a good weekend for redfishfishing.
The cool front is expected to pass through the area later tonight. Although it will bring little to no rain, the area will experience strong, gusty winds through Friday.
The weather conditions are expected to improve for the remainder of the weekend with calmer winds and cooler temperatures. There will be a chance for rain on Saturday.
Good fishing.
Vegas said the charter fishermen have reported catching redfish and speckled trout in the marsh areas around Leeville and Grand Isle.
Bull reds also have been reported being caught in the passes near Grand Isle.
Best spots: Palmetto Bay, Fishermens Bay, Four Bayous, Caminada Pass and the canals along La. 1 from Fourchon to Grand Isle.
Best baits: Live cocahoe minnows, shrimp and Gulp plastic baits.
Average fishing.
Prior to the cool front, fishermen were doing well and having no trouble catching speckled trout and redfish.
But the cool front could change things. If the water becomes cloudy, from the winds it would become tougher to catch speckled trout. Redfish should remain unchanged by the cool front.
Best spots: Duck ponds, Bay Canard Gris, Catfish Lake and sulphur mines in the Bayou Boue area.
Best baits: Smoke-colored sparkle beetles, minnows and shrimp.
Good fishing.
Bill Lake reported taking in 48 speckled trout and two redfish on Sunday.
The trout were in the 14-inch range and most were caught under diving birds near Grand Pass.
Later, a west wind churned up the water, making it a bit muddy.
Best spots: Sister Lake and Lake Mechant.
Best baits: LSU Bayou Chub Minnows.
Good fishing.
If anglers can find areas of falling or moving water, they can catch bass.
Points and slews draining out of the marsh have proved fruitful.
Also, bream and sac-a-lait are being caught when the water is dropping, and redfish and bass are being caught below the Brady Canal.
For more information on Bayou Black Marina and the area, visit www.bayoublackmarina.com or e-mail Bobby Breaux at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Best spots: Turtle Bayou, Crawford Canal, School Board Canal and below the Brady Canal.
Best baits: Crickets, nightcrawlers, corn, crank baits, top water baits early in the morning and plastic worms when the suns come up.

Inter RAO Restores Power to Belarus in Full on Debt Payment
OAO Inter RAO UES, Russia's state-controlled power exporter, resumed supplies to Belarus in full after the country paid off debts for previous deliveries.
The supplies were restored yesterday, said a press officer for the Moscow-based power utility who declined to be identified because of company policy.
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev ordered the resumption of electricity supplies to the neighboring country, a day after Belarus announced that it paid the final 611 million Russian rubles ($22 million) owed, Medvedev's spokeswoman, Natalia Timakova, said yesterday.
Inter RAO had cut power to Belarus on June 29.

Why You Should Care About Your Doctor's Health
If we care about our health, we must address physician health. This can only happen with a shift in the culture of care and wellness of doctors. Self-care must become a core competency in medical training. Such radical change requires the involvement of all stakeholders, the doctors, the health policy makers and most importantly, the public.

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2016 Lexus LS
By Micah Muzio
Lexus says that of the 6,000 parts that make up the flagship LS
sedan, 3,000 have been changed for the 2013 model update. Of those many new parts arguably the most important is the spindle-shaped grille; a simple but profound addition that trumpets a newfound sense of style for the traditionally conservative LS. It may look edgier but in terms of luxury, ride and amenities the
2013 Lexus LS continues to deliver the dignified indulgence expected in an exclusive class that includes the
BMW 7 Series,
Audi A8 and
Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
It could be argued that the 2013 Lexus LS is the most boldly-styled full-size luxury car on the market. Don't let the edgy look fool you; the LS still delivers the supple ride, comfortable interior and reliability Lexus buyers demand.
The newest Lexus LS inches the thrillometer up a notch or two, especially in F Sport trim, but ultimately it still trails such competitors as the BMW 7 Series or Audi A8 when it comes to driving fun.
A sharp-looking exterior refresh, an updated interior, some new technologies and countless less-visible tweaks help contemporize a platform carried over from the 2012 Lexus LS. One feature now missing is the LS's overly-complicated, seldom-used auto-park feature. Auto park, you will not be missed.
Even though the suddenly-sexy LS sedan uses the same suspension, powertrain and chassis found in the previous-generation LS, numerous structural enhancements and suspension tweaks have been incorporated to improve ride...
... and handling. The payoff is a tastefully enhanced rendition of a familiar driving experience. Lexus' full-size sedan glides lightly over bumps and steers with a casual feel, all the while isolating those inside from the world outside. Meanwhile, a new feature called "Drive Mode Select" lets the driver customize steering, powertrain and suspension settings to personal preference across the sport/comfort spectrum. For a slightly more thrilling ride consider the LS 460 F Sport, which uses a sport-tuned air suspension and Brembo brakes to deliver confident deceleration and noticeably sharper handling. It's a nice effort but, with no increase in horsepower versus the standard LS 460, we doubt the F Sport package will dazzle real performance enthusiasts.
Never underestimate the power of music to brighten one's day. The optional Mark Levinson audio system uses 450 watts of power to drive 19 speakers in a 7.1 arrangement beautifully reproducing sounds from 20 to 20,000 Hertz. For absorbing the brilliance of Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart" we've found few better solutions.
Vibrating and shiatsu massage, a Blu-Ray entertainment system, wood-trimmed tables and a power recliner in the right-rear position make this a must-have package for high rollers who demand posh transportation between business dealings.
With a cleanly-arranged dash, attractive interior accent lighting and a big 12.3-inch screen controlled by Lexus' easy-to-use second-generation Remote Touch interface, the interior of the Lexus LS strikes a smart balance between style and functionality. Occupants are treated to comfortably-contoured seats and, especially in the long-wheel base LS 460 L, more than adequate head- and leg room. Buyers of the standard LS 460 have their choice of five unique interior themes. Attractive bamboo trim is reserved for the LS 600h
Hybrid while a sporty steering wheel, aluminum interior trim and extra-bolstered seats are found exclusively in the LS 460 F Sport.
A bulging hood, menacing face and a contemporary rear-end treatment make the 2013 Lexus LS sedan the most radical-looking LS to date. Variations from the basic LS 460 body style include the roomier, extended wheel base LS 460 L and the LS 460 F Sport featuring aggressive front and rear fascias and a 10-millimeter-reduced ride height. Standard wheels are 18-inch alloys while the F Sport wears 19-inchers. Available as an option are special wheels featuring a hollow section that reduces tire noise through the technical wonders of science.
No flagship would be complete without an impressive standard-equipment list. In that theme all LS trims include HID headlights, a 16-way power driver seat, a power tilt/telescoping steering wheel, dual-zone front climate control, navigation, parking sensors, a backup camera and a 10-speaker audio system. As for safety, active front headrests, eight airbags and stability control also make the standard-equipment list.
For those unmoved by the Lexus LS's standard features there are numerous high-end options from which to choose. Highlights include: Heated and cooled seats front and rear, four-zone climate control, an upgraded leather and Alcantara package, rear audio controls and rear side airbags. Among the higher-tech add-ons are automatic high beams, dynamic radar-based cruise control, lane-departure mitigation and a pre-collision detection system that warns of impending crashes, applying the brakes if necessary to minimize impact severity.
Other than a modest bump in horsepower for the standard 4.6-liter V8 very little has changed under the hood of the Lexus LS for the 2013 model year. Conventional gasoline-powered models are available with rear or all-wheel drive and shifting duties are still handled by an 8-speed automatic transmission. In the LS 600h L, propulsion is generated by the combined efforts of a 5.0-liter V8, a pair of electric motor/generators, a nickel-metal hydride battery, a continuously-variable transmission and a full-time all-wheel-drive system. All that technology allows the hybrid LS to accelerate as quickly as its non-hybrid counterparts while giving it a 3-mpg advantage in city driving.
4.6-liter V8 (rear-wheel drive)
386 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm
367 lb-ft of torque @ 4,100 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/24 mpg
4.6-liter V8 (all-wheel drive)
360 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm
347 lb-ft of torque @ 4,100 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/23 mpg
5.0-liter V8 Hybrid
389 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm
385 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 rpm
Total power: 438 horsepower
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 19/23 mpg

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9
"I have owned a Lexus since 1993. I bought an LS460 F-Sport last year and have been very happy with it. It rides like a limo but also has enough power to feel like it's a sports car. It's excellent in maneuvering through big city highway traffic. Floats along if on an extended hwy trip. Only complaint is the Brembo brakes. They squeal excessively even after the dealership replaced the brakes for free. Conventional brakes should have been used instead these racing car brakes. Overall though, this is a wonderful vehicle and I'd recommend it for anyone who is looking for a high end luxury automobile."

"If you want a sports car... this isn't for you. This is my 7th LS purchase. Lexus has never let me down. Yea, I know... I'm older than the guy who wants to drive the new Mustang, but I go for luxury and comfort. After a long drive, it's a car that makes you feel you have been driving in your easy chair. The electronics are advanced, but easy to use. I call it, "my Sony on wheels". I average 17.7 mpg... for a luxury car... not bad."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9
"The car performs as expected, very smooth comfortable ride, with good acceleration. Cabin in very quite and well done. Mileage has averaged about 18 City/highway. I would say the EPA estimates for city are accurate, but highway mileage is much better. Bluetooth and electronics perform well. The mouse button structure for the various screen functions is more time consuming to use than a touch screen. While it doesn't have the engaging drive of a Audi A8 or a sports type coupe, it provides a very comfortable driving experience."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 5,000overall rating 9 of 10rating details
Pros: "Comfortable and quite ride, good acceleration."
Cons: "Mouse Controller"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9
"Ride is very smooth and quite. Plenty of pick-up and acceleration from the V8. I have the AWD and the traction and cornering is very good, even for this large of a car. Interior space is on par with the prior version, and interior is very well done. The Bluetooth and electronics work well, however, the mouse controller can be somewhat more time consuming to use than a touch screen set-up. I suppose Lexus had to go with the controller setup due to the placement of the screen so high up on the dash. Voice commands do have helpful screen prompts. Mileage is so/so with average of 19 city/highway. Blind spot monitor is helpful, and the hold function when sitting at a long stop is also a nice touch. One item noted, was that the paint protection option offered by the dealer did make a difference in the appearance of the car. Car is black and it was sitting next to another black car that didn't have the paint protection added. The black on the car with the paint protection added had a deeper and shinier finish than the car without. Both were new. Overall, very satisfied with the car."

Very distinctive visual style as usual, and there's a lot more black humour (I imagine intentional) this time around, especially the end shot, which essentially was a twisted and cold version of what you might find in a children's sitcom.
